How to Identify Beavers

Beavers are the largest rodent species in North America, commonly weighing 35–50 pounds, though some can grow up to 100 pounds.

Beavers are built for aquatic life, with features such as:

• Valvular ears, eyes, and lips that seal out water
• Webbed hind feet for strong swimming
• Dense fur ranging from yellowish-brown to black
• Large, constantly growing front teeth perfect for chewing wood
• A signature broad, flat tail used for swimming and balance

These traits make beavers highly adaptable to the many lakes, rivers, creeks, and ponds around metro Atlanta.

Why Beavers Become a Nuisance in Atlanta

In and around Atlanta, beavers thrive in urban and suburban waterways. Without natural predators or active trapping programs in place, beaver populations can quickly grow out of control.

Beaver activity leads to:

• Flooded yards, parks, golf courses, and agricultural fields
• Damaged culverts, drains, bridges, and roadways
• Destroyed ornamental and fruit trees from constant gnawing
• Structural damage to ponds, banks, and levees

Beaver damage in the Southeast causes an estimated $20–$23 million in losses annually — and in Georgia, these costs are steadily rising due to expanding beaver populations.

Common Signs of Beaver Damage

If you notice the following signs on your property, you may have a beaver problem:

• Flooded areas from dammed-up creeks or culverts
• Trees stripped of bark from the base up to 3 feet high
• Freshly gnawed trees and shrubs
• Dens (lodges) built along waterbanks, identified by debris piles and underwater entrances

Beaver Control and Removal Options

At Atlanta Wildlife Solutions, LLC, we offer proven methods to effectively remove nuisance beavers:

• Habitat Modifications:
  Wrapping trees with hardware cloth to prevent chewing and dam-building.
• Beaver Harassment:
  Repeated destruction of dams and dens to encourage beaver relocation (though beavers can rebuild overnight, requiring persistence).
• Professional Trapping and Removal:
  When other methods fail, trapping is the only effective solution. We use specialized, humane trapping techniques based on a deep understanding of beaver behavior and habitat.

Important: Beaver trapping is dangerous without proper training. Inexperienced trapping can lead to “trap-educated” beavers, making future removal much harder.
